REASONS TO SUPPORT
ENDTRACHOMA BY 2020
The World Health Organisation has a global goal
to eliminate trachoma by 2020. Trachoma is an
infectious eye disease that can be prevented
with good hygiene practices. But it is still
present in remote Aboriginal communities and
can lead to permanent blindness.
The work of the Australian Government,
the Fred Hollows Foundation and Indigenous
Eye Health to treat trachoma infections has
seen rates in affected communities reduced
substantially. But we now need to ensure
that hygiene practices and the community
environments are improved to completely
eliminate the disease.
In line with the World Health Organisation’s
global goal, incoming Rotary International
president Ian Riseley wants a trachoma-free
Australia by 2021, to coincide with Rotary’s
100th year in Australia. We are the only
developed country in the world where
trachoma remains.
Here are the top five reasons why your club
should support Ian and the World Health
Organisation in their goal:

turns 100 in 2021
What a way to celebrate!
Work together on a single
Australia-wide project for communities
aspiring for better lives.
Let’s rid Australia of
trachoma!
How can Australia be the
last developed country
with trachoma? Together, we can join the
World Health Organisation’s global effort
to eliminate trachoma by 2020.
Australians working
for Australians in need
Indigenous Australians
still have health as poor
as in many developing world slums.
We can help fix this!
We are working with every
trachoma organisation in
Australia
Every dollar you donate
prevents unnecessary blindness by improving
the hygiene and health of our least advantaged,
remote Indigenous Australians. Your club can
even collect stamps to support the ‘Philatelic
Garbology’ fundraiser, run by Rotarian Carrol
Farmer (ericfarmer@bigpond.com). Send used
stamps to 423/ 1286 High St, Malvern, Vic, 3144
